um Joan's going to be there and so we'll be we'll be minus Joan on uh one of the
one Thursday after next yeah she's in the background doing peace signs um Thursday after next so but um hey we'll
make it work uh we we will miss her and I will try not to end the stream
um when I'm not supposed to so hello Maria hey everyone I'm Juliana sometimes
I forget to introduce myself I just you know I just feel like the whole world knows who I am but that's not the case
I'm Juliana people call me Jules that's my nickname and I am the inventor of the
jewel loom the uh blue portable easy to use jewel loom that we're going to be
playing with tonight and uh being alone is my manufacturing partner they make the original jewel
loom they make the baby jewel loom but um yeah so you could find the jewel loom
all over the world and that's a pretty cool thing I still need to get a map because I want
to see where the jewel loom is I want to like start asking people uh so yeah and then we have our beautiful wood looms
that are manufactured right here in the U.S in Missouri uh by the lovely Robert
and Karen and the boys the boys bless the Looms before they go out so but
anyway what are we doing what are we doing Maria Leanne Robin everyone's coming in welcome it's a Thursday night
it's 7 P.M Eastern Time 4 P.M Pacific Standard time so I am now
in New Jersey um and so I just want to give a big shout out I'm doing my jersey girl hoops
my jersey girl Hoops my New York my East Coast hey
I'm loving them my girlfriend Jackie she had a pair on and I was like I need
those and so she brought them she brought them over so I'm loving it I
love a big pair of Hoops I just think they're way too much fun hey Mel how you doing
so good to see you sweetheart um yeah so oh good Maria loves them
but I was on a a two hour Zoom uh and then a Facebook uh for the industry
today and I forgive me I've got my my sexy voice which some of you may not
mind but if I clear my throats that Joan's cracking up if I clear my throat
a few times that's why Hey listen earlier today um I went ahead and I uploaded part one
to this project which was warping the loom okay so that's part one and then uh
part two was me actually showing you how to build the base now when I ended part
two I didn't have the whole base completed because at that point we were already 15 minutes into it and I wanted
to just like show you what we were doing talk about it and and then off air go
ahead and finish it tonight we're going to be focusing on the loops and so the
loops are these fun dimensional uh pieces this is the oceans desire
bracelet this is the one that I did in the jewel loom Inspirations book which
if you don't have that I would say go ahead check out your local bookstore to see if they have it or if they can order
it for you um it's on the Barnes Noble uh but it's also on the Amazon
and so if you're a Prime member um you could probably I don't know if you get free shipping with that I think
so um I don't personally carry it in the jewel loom shop because
believe it or not selling a book in addition to all the other things books are just like
they're weird with packaging whatever and so you know uh please you know visit
the Amazon visit the Barnes and Noble but by all means if you have a local bookstore go to your local bookstore
because I'd like to support um the small bookstores as well funny thing is
I'm not attached but I'm like next door to the town Bookshop here and so my
girlfriend's like you really need to go introduce yourself because she'll probably carry your book and maybe even
your loom and you could do an author thing and blah blah blah and I'm like oh my God so cool yes of course I should do
that all right so let's just see what's going on Jeanette's in the house how you feeling Sue I miss seeing you
very cool very cool yeah so we're going to go ahead I'm going to show you the looping we're going to work on that
um the kits um I reworked one of the creative Soul kits
we had some left over and so I reworked it so that you can make this bracelet
I want to say that there might be 12 kits left it's called Bright Lights Vega
nights not Vegas but Vega so if you heard the story about me breaking down outside of
Vega Texas and the deputy that sat with us for
quite a long time until the tow truck came that whole situation has had
such an impact on my heart and so I was like oh you know this kind of reminded
me of like if the if the lights were on the patrol car and the tow truck lights and all those big old truckers driving
by which God bless the truckers in the U.S I'm just gonna like pour my love out
on you I don't even know how you deal with others on the road because I saw some
stuff like people would pull in front of Truckers they're not going to be able to stop okay so
please don't pull in front of a trucker you're not going to win and it's really
really dangerous and so yeah so my heart just like goes out to the to all the truckers in the U.S I I just was ah I
just couldn't get over over what they had to deal with on my cross-country trip I saw a lot so uh in the photo and
I don't know John why don't you go ahead and and let's go down to the overhead
okay perfect and let's just see here
I'm gonna try to get I'm gonna pull this out for a second so I can show you
all right so we have a huge assortment of glass beads and there's going to be
all kinds of different shapes and sizes there's a ton of Aqua Jasper
um there's other gemstones in here as well but every Kit's a little bit different
so but you will definitely have the Jasper the aqua Jasper but as far as the other gemstones it might be topaz cords
that might be lapis um but it's a variety of different
stones and you're going to have your 11 0's and then I've already used my 80s I
guess I could have grabbed another kit so it's a tube where's that here we go
so it's a whole tube of Edo's this is a lustered Rosaline absolutely gorgeous
this is what I have left um after doing the length for a six inch wrist which
I'll talk about here in a sec okay um oh and I think I not I think I'm
going to add which is not in the photo on the website I'm going to add some
bugles y'all if you saw my drawer full of bugles you would probably just I don't
know you'd probably tie me up and then I don't know take them all because when
I tell you I got bugles uh Mama's got bugles so I'm gonna put at least three
this one is a twisted gold bugle let me bring it up to the camera look
how whoops look how pretty okay so it just depends but I'm kind of
thinking it would be fun with these bigger guys maybe to do like a fringed
fringed look I I don't know that more than three would um yeah you could do a pendant too
Joan that's very true so I just I saw the Bugles and I was like you know what I'm gonna share them they're just
sitting in a they're sitting in the door they're sitting in the Jewel and they need to go out to everybody who buys a
kit okay all right that's my my uh my I don't
know bad interpretation of my East Coast accent so I'm gonna go ahead and bring
in my loom and this is where I finished and I just want to bring the ocean's
desire in let me scooch this up a little and so you can see that with this one I
did go let me scooch it up I did go a couple more rows because this bracelet
fits awfully tight and if I swell up I can't even close it so I decided to just
go ahead and add a couple extra rows isn't this one Gorge the ocean's desire is really gorgeous I
should try to put together that kit okay so
um when I finished my base I still had plenty of thread so I didn't cut it off
because I'm just going to go right into my loops and what I'm gonna do I I'm
Gonna Leave the top row and I'm going to leave the bottom row without Loops so
I'm in the perfect position to just go ahead and take my needle and I'm going to put some more light on
this situation just so I can I can see a little bit better
does that let's see I don't want to like blind you I hope that's okay Joan is
that okay with that light now okay it just helps me to see better so
um yep all right so I'm gonna go ahead and put a loop on
three of the Edo seed beads so I'm gonna take the needle
and I'm going to come through the first and then I'm going to come out in between that first and second bead and
this is my right hand by the way so I'm on the right side of the Loom and then I'm just going to pull that all
the way so I'm taking my needle and thread and
the more beads you pick up the bigger and fluffier your Loops will be and the
less beads then that you pick up the tighter your Loops will be so I like a
little bit of a go home go big or go home so I'm going to go ahead and do one
come on buddy I got extra light you should be easy to see um four
five so I'm gonna pick up five eleven O's and I'm just going to grab one of
the smaller decorative beads I'm going to refer to this palette as my
decorative beads hey Nancy and one
four whoops five okay then what I'm going to do is
I'm going to go back through the first bead and then I'm going the needles going
through the second bead and then it's going to come out between the third and
the fourth beat and this is going to be my first Loop
oh my gosh see look how fun seriously one of my all-time favorite
this is how I learn this is all I ever ever ever ever ever did when I first
learned we were making these on the aleene's creative show creative living show like Non-Stop
so we were constantly making this style so again I'm going to pick up five
four five and [Music] let's see what do we got here we got a
bunch of little things going on we'll get some Duos oh this is pretty let me pick up this
blue bead that's probably the hardest part to this is figuring out what beads to pick up
because they're all so pretty okay so two
three four five now I'm going to take the needle
and I'm gonna go to the right side of that third bead and then I'm going to
come all the way out and there's my second Loop so let me
bring that up to the camera
okay and now we're gonna do our third Loop and so I'm all the way out here on the
um outside of that we'll call that the six speed from the right
and once again I'm going to pick up one two three
four five and you know what let me I'm gonna pick
up a little gemstone that'll be fun that was all the way over here
five okay and then I'm gonna go to the right side of that sixth bead
and all the way out and that's my third Loop okay so that row now has three loops on
okay and then what I'm gonna do is I turn the loom around
so that I can start to work on the next row so this time I could alternate so I
could come in and I'll come out I'll go through the first two beads and then I'll come out
the second in between that second and that third bead all right
you could certainly make a loop on every single Edo I mean that would be
something um it's gonna take a while and it's going to get really tight but it's a
super cool look so again I'm going to let me make sure
I'm in the frame here so we're going to do one
um maybe I'll start to go well no I'm kind of you know since this is by my
wrist I'm gonna kind of stay a little small I kind of I'm Gonna Save my big eyes for
you know what's going to be seen so three
four five and then I'm gonna go on the right side of that second bead and then I'm
gonna come out at the fifth bead in between the fifth and the sixth speed
okay so there's another loop
and so again we're going to pick up five one two
um let's get a little red in there so get this red oh I'm gonna get these
four and five and then I'm gonna go on the right side
okay so I have my first five loops and then once again I'm gonna turn the
loom so every time I'm done with the row I turn and then I'm going to come through I'm
going to repeat that first row which was on the loop on the first the third and the sixth bead
so this is going to be a really fun bracelet super fun it's going to be warm
and Fally but it's going to have like still going to have some punch to it
four five and ooh this one's speaking to me
look at that pretty one okay that's like a teal super pretty
four five so we're gonna go on the right side of the first speed
and then we're coming through the second and then out and in between the third and the fourth
oh that's really pretty okay and then so you can kind of see
like by picking up five beads how big that makes your Loop so if you wanted
your piece to be tighter then you would just pick up less um 11 0's
and let's see I don't think I've used any purple so of course the hole on that
guy oh cool so that one goes from the top to the
four five and where are you at okay so we're gonna
go in the right side and then all the way out
oh it's gonna be so pretty okay I haven't made myself one of these in a
long time so one two three
four five and let's see what am I missing
let's see let's see let's see what can we go with let's oh let's do let's do
um I feel like I need a pop of something I guess we'll do this little tiny lapis
chip that'll work and then one
okay and then we're gonna go out whoops
perfect and then I'm going to turn it
now in the book we do talk about how you can skip a row in the base of
your project and if you do skip a row it just kind of helps the bracelet to flow
back and forth let me see I don't know
looks like I might have made loops on
every single one of mine I just like that tight you know the the
tight you know loot feeling of the bracelet so I don't think I'm going to
skip on this one either so we just did three so now we're gonna go back to
two so I just want to make sure I pull tight enough here so
um coming out the second one
and we're gonna pick up five
and let's see what are we gonna do here this is always the oh that one's a cool
okay and then I'm going on the right side
of that bead and then out in between the fifth and the sixth
oh my gosh look how pretty this is going to be a really fun
bracelet like I gotta scooch some stuff over here
okay so we're gonna pick a five one
I guess we could do like a topaz
okay and then I'm gonna go to the right side and all the weight out
and you see how I like help to guide the loops and I just take my time
super pretty okay and then we're gonna turn
I feel like I'm gonna need a new shirt for this there's a dress in the window across the
street and I'm like oh my gosh okay it just got a little too tight here
this would look very pretty
so again we've got one two three
uh oh my gosh oh should I do no I'm still a little too
close kind of like to save some of these bigger guys for
um the middle of the bracelet oh that's going to be a fun one
color though what color what color what color [Music]
oh look at this I didn't even see that let's do that white one that's awesome one
five and okay so we're gonna go through the
first bead the second bead and then out between the third and the fourth
oh yeah that's really fun okay
maybe this baby blue one huh
and then we're going on the right side of the third and then all the way out
okay and then we're going to pick up
the dark blue one Hermes in the background um
um yeah what up and I can't see that I I get all like oh but I got that color there
I haven't used any of my Jasper let me see if I have a small actually ooh what's that that looks pretty
there's so many different cool beads in here I always like to give you
cool cool beads let's see what we've got four five
and we'll go all the way out
okay and then we're gonna turn it is really pretty Nancy it's really
pretty and now I gotta kind of stick my head in
here so we had three right so it starts to get a little tight but
it's really I like I like the look of that so I'm gonna do
just that's the second bead so I'm only doing two loops
and I do feel like I could do a is there
oh there's only one red in here right now let's go ahead and oh but I've only
got three red all together so I'm going to want to Pace myself with the red
so let's put those guys over there oops I just lost a seed bead
um oh you know we haven't used got a lot of those guys let's do a little lavender
four five and we're going to go in the
side of the second bead there and then out and in between the fifth and the
did I just see what I think I just did I did didn't I oh well I'm okay so let me show you what
I just did because I'm talking and I'm demoing I only picked up one seed bead
and then I picked up the decorative bead and then I picked up five more but guess what it's not a deal breaker it still
looks cool and I'm not going to lose my Cheerios over it okay so you know something like that
happens it happens and you could certainly back up and start over again but I'm not going to do it I think it's
fine it'll be My Little Secret with you and the rest of the world
oh that's kind of big though what about this big chunky now because he's going to take over
oh my okay do this guy this is really pretty I'm gonna do that one
four five and then I'm gonna go on the right side
oh I gotta really get in here I can't see okay so I'm on the right side of the
fifth bead here and all the way out
wow look at how much we got done
I love looping I just can't even tell you how much I love it okay so
we're gonna do if you ever do get to the point where you're just like you know what I feel
like I need to not do something on a row and you want to skip
a row you certainly can I'm I do want to go ahead and get in here and do you know
what I might just do seed beads on this one yep that's what I'm gonna do because this guy got a little big and that's
cool um I'm gonna just do seed beads I'm gonna do 10
and I'm on the right side of the first bead then I'll come out that third
okay yeah that'll be good so this will just be like my filler row so instead of
leaving it blank with no Loops I'm just going to do seed beads
that'll be nice because it all gets smushed together when I do that next row
and then we'll just go on the right side and all the way out
okay and then we're gonna turn
what is the leftover beat that's so funny and gonna go through the first and the
and I'll go back to making the loops with a decorative bead three
four five oh what's that that's Gorge
holy cow where's your hole at okay oh that's really cool
so let me scooch up here a little too
digging into my mat here three four
five no four where's the fifth one
and on the right side and then all the way out between the fifth and the sixth
a little short here on thread oh look at how pretty that is
this is going to have a lot of conversation
so now I'm definitely want to sneak in some Jasper I think that might look super cool
so one two three whoa whoa
getting a little tight in here
oh I love it I love how this is speaking to this very cool
okay wow that's a big guy
um holy guacamole what am I gonna do what am I gonna do definitely feel like I need something here
to balance this out so keeping the tension I want to make
sure that Loop stays nice and tight so three what do I got five
and what do I want to kind of snuggle up against the Jasper
what do I let me see let me see maybe a piece of um like a tote oh yeah like
here I wonder if that would help for it to ooh or do I wanna oh I don't know if I
want to dangle that might make stuff ooh is that that's
the same guy okay let's just do this one
four or five and I'm gonna come through the right and
we definitely need to have something there in the middle so
[Laughter] so pretty okay so now let's see what
we're gonna do here one two three
four five and I feel like it needs something
I need color because I've got like kind of like a collage collection of
a little bit of Pop there but I think I need pop pop so this looks good ooh or
do I want no that's too much of the same let's go with this guy
four five and oops make sure
oh yeah nice nice call Jules
stir up the pot let's stir up the pot what do we got going on oh what's that no I got too much glue
um maybe just one of them do you want one
does it need to be I feel like it does I feel like it's got to be something in
that size so let me see what do I got here
don't want any more glue on that row uh and I only have one more white
so I gotta save that what am I gonna do there's so many pretty beads I don't
know what color I want um any ideas tell me what to pick tell me
what to pick Amber topaz you want to think another Amber topaz there's like an Amber topaz
over here am I not seeing something oh that's
pretty rad to put that in the middle somewhere
maybe one of these guys maybe that's the answer let's try that one
two I I was thinking red too but I only have two more Reds
so I kind of wanted to balance them so I'm just gonna go with this one
okay this will work okay oh yeah that's fine
that way we don't take away from that piece of Jasper what do you think let me bring it up to the camera
um no it's not heavy to wear Believe It or Not Leon it's not now it's certainly not going to be a lightweight friendship
bracelet like if you were just doing seed beads but no it's not
um it's not heavy but when you have your Loops that go all the way around to your
wrist you know if you're typing probably not gonna you know
be the bracelet that you're wearing but it's definitely a cool statement piece
yeah we did we got the men green right okay let me see how much thread I have
and um I'm gonna do one more row here so
we'll go ahead this will have two loops on this row we have probably just enough
thread to do two more Loops so let's see so one
I wanna see I want to do one of these guys
I can't see where are you at buddy
mess with me won't ya that's so sexy okay
let's get our last Loop in here oh my God I can't even this is gonna be such a cool bracelet one
and let's do we want to do one of these big guys I
one two three four whoops
and all the way out holy guacamole
okay so I'm gonna turn it around and
um yeah that's I mean I could probably figure out how to do three more
how are these laying right now
let me see if I can't get a couple more loops with this thread I hate to waste it
three four five and I'm just gonna do something
little so pick up that little guy one
oh that's really that's like a slate oh so gorgeous
smooth that'll be pretty get really tight on my
oh and we're gonna barely get one more out so we're probably gonna have to tilt
tilt my loom here one two three
four five and oh I think a baby blue oh no this
guy see this guy what's the hole
is it oh there it is I thought it was sideways
and five right nope four okay fine where are you at
okay oh my gosh so so pretty
all right so I'm gonna turn it around and I want to
here and what I'm doing is I'm just going to grab I'm gonna grab the warp
and I'm just going to tie it off to it
okay and let's see if I can't do that one more time
okay and then I'm going to take the needle and push it down to the back so that if not goes
okay and then I'll just Source my scissors I'm just going to trim it and then later
on I'll take the Wildfire burner
and so yeah so I'll just keep working on this and
um and then I'll have the finished piece and then
we're gonna sew on a clasp where did my class go
where'd you go buddy oh so in the kit you have you have a button three button
three hole button clasp and we're going to sew that on so I will probably do that as a part for
all to itself so that I can really concentrate on sewing it on and showing
you I know I've done that before but I think that it'll just be better so I'm
gonna finish my bracelet off camera I do want to show you really quick so you
know in the past we've done like this was the Earth Tone kit and we
did the warps with the hemp and it looked really really cool
um and then we just did the middle of our bracelet and that looked really cool so you do have that option that you
could do that but I just haven't made myself a really big chunky bracelet in a long time
so I'm super excited about this one it's going to be a special piece
so let me turn off the lights and Joan if you want to do the honor
oh my poor throat so prior to oh God it's so hot and humid
I apologize for having the fan on in the back but it's hot
so um yeah so before I came on Katie hacker and I were chatting it up and we were
um she was having me do photos so they're doing something at interweave and she's
like shows me a photo that the I from a long time ago and she's like can you do this
but vertical you know like um landscape so I'm like up against the ball before
going live and it's like one of these
so when you see that you're gonna know that it was right before this live and I
said to Katie I said you know you really need to come on with me and she was like yeah
so we're gonna get Miss Katie hacker to come on and play and that'll be a lot of
fun so yeah I know over the um over the fan you can't hear Marlon
Brando you can't hear him snoring so but anyway so there were I don't know
how many kids are left there were I think maybe 12 or something like that when we started very limited
and uh yeah that's my story so I hope you enjoy that I can't if you do get the
kid I can't wait to see your version of it you're probably going to have a lot of extra beads
I would assume at least some you know you could probably stream some for some
earrings or something like that yes it would be super awesome to have Miss Katie hacker on we love her
thank you Robin thank you Sherry and Maria and everyone watching and everyone that will be watching and so again I'm
going to finish my bracelet off camera I'll probably do one of those time lapsed
things that I like to do I don't like to do something and then not have some video of it and then I'll do the sewing
of the button on as a part 4 video in between now and hopefully soon I'll get
that uploaded and then I'm dreaming of what we're gonna do next Thursday I'm not sure
always open for ideas yes thank you Maria thank you thanks
thank you Jeanette thanks all of my all the peeps all the Looms All The
Luminaries all right love you guys we will see you again thank you thank you thank you
